Research Focus
Dr. Jonathan T.C. Liu's lab at Stanford University focuses on improving the diagnosis and risk assessment for Barrett's esophagus, a condition linked to esophageal cancer. They are developing advanced computational techniques for 3D pathology to provide better insights from biopsies, which can significantly enhance patient treatment decisions. By leveraging machine learning and 3D imaging, the lab aims to make the diagnosis process more accurate and reliable for pathologists.
